AApplication filed February 19, 1912. Serial No.Y 678,493.

To au whom #may concern Be it known thatl, ALBERT E. MASTIN,

a citizen of the United States, residing at. Sacramento, in the county ot Sacramento,

State of California, have invented certain new and useful. Improvements in Electric Heating-Stoves; and I ldo declare the :tol-

and exact description of the same, such as will enablehothers skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the .accompanying drawings, and to the characters of reference marked thereon, which 'form a part ot thisapplication.`

This invention relates to improvements in stoves of all kinds and characters and particularly to an electrically heated stove which may, be used either Jfor heat-ing or cooking purposes, the object of the invention being to produce a stove of such structure and relative arrangement of parts as'will permit the use of a specially designed elec- -tric heater whereby an f Figurel is a etliciency of'heatmay be had in the stove with a minimum expense ot uel.-

Ar vfurther object of the invention is to.

produce a particular form of heater espe cially adapted tor the purpose and cooking stoves.

A further .object of the invention is to produce a simple and inexpensive device and yet one which will be exceedingly eiective for the purposes for which it is designed.

These objects, I accomplish by means of such structure and relative arrangement of parts as will, fully appear by a perusal of the following' specification and claims.

In the drawings similar characters of reterence indicate corresponding parts in the several views. i

front elevation of my complete stove. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sect-ion of the same. Fig. 3 is a" sectional view taken on a line X-X of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a sectional view takenon aline Y-Y of Fig. 2. Fig. 5is a perspective view. of the top wall of an oven. Fig'. 6 is a perspective view of a side wall of an oven.

:Referring new more particularly to the characters ot reference on the drawings, 1

designates the body of the stove which 1n the lstruct-ure shown in the drawings is divided into two bottom compartments 3 and 4 and an oven-compartment 5 disposedabove the compartmente; thewhole of .said co 1npartment-s 3,'44and'5-be1ng provided with of heating x K free end with a switch 25 and thence passes an inner lining of asbestos 6. The top oi' thecompartment 3 is provided vwith a'lid 7 hinged as at 8 to permit of its beingopened, which lidis provided with a central orice 9 over-'which may be placed a gratey 10 for the purpose of holding'thecooking utensils. Within 'the compartment 3' isan electrical heater composed of an inner metallic tubular member 11 having al1-[outer lining ot asbestos 12, wrapped around which is a resistant wire 13. Spaced lfrom. thisstructure is another metallicl tubular member 14 secured to-said member- 11 bystraps' 15, which-member 14 acts asa radiator for the heat from, `the wire 13. The wire 13 connects at each end with aswitch 16l and from thence passes through a conduit 17 to the-source of electrical energy 18. In the compartment 4 is another electrical heater comprising an inner-metallictubular member 19 covered with asbestos 20 around which is wrapped wire 21.

The numeral 22 designates an outer metallic tubular member secured tto the tubular Amember 19 by bolts 23.' The member 22 is surrounded by asbestos lining 24 andthe wire 21 is then wrapped around this asbestos lining 24. The wire 21 connects at its into the conduit 17. Projecting through the compartments 4 and 5 are flange 1nembers 26. 1

The numeral 27 designates a top wall for the compartment 5 and is provided with flanges 28 which hold-1t away trom said compartment 5 there beinga .V--shaped distributing flange 29 to distribute the heat which might pass between the member 27l and the top of the compartment 5.

The numeral 30 designates side walls tor the compartment 5 .provided ends with member 27 and with' bottom projecting flange members 32 which rest on the members 26. The members 30 are also provided with inwardly engage the sides of the compartment 25 and hold members 30 spaced therefrom to permit the heat from the compartment 4 to pass therebetween and in order to evenly heat the member 5. The tops of the members are provided with holes 3 4 to let the heat into the compartment 5. Y

Thenumeral S15-"designates a bottom plate 4 l aty their upperl flanges4 31 which. support the' ico. j

projecting flanges 33 which i los between the top of the]l compartment 5 and member 27 as described' mits the for the compartment 5 and rests on the ianges 32 and is .provided with a curved un der surface-36 for'the purpose of distributing the vheat to throw it around the side and top walls, as described. The" members 30 have inwardly projecting'shelves 37 to' receive the grates, as described.

In practice the heat from the heater inthe compartment 3 m \`y be utilized V for general cooking purposes kwhile the. heater vin* compartment 4 is .utilized to heat` the oven compartment 5, .the 'Wall structure of which per-v heat to be -distributed evenly to give perfect satisfaction.l 0r if desired the same heaters mayrbe used or'lpiirely heatmg stoves.A A 1 ,i A

LF-rom the foregoingdescription"it will be readily seen that I have produoedsuch a de-v vicel as substantially. fulfilsv the ,objects of the invention asset fothfherein. fr

p While this specicaien 'ses forth .d-- tail the" present`-` and preferred construction of the device,'still iny practice such Adeviations from such detail 'may be`resorted to as do not form a departure from the spirit of the invention.

Having'thus described my'invention what I claim as new and usefuland desire to se- 'cure by Letters Patent is 1. A deviceV of the character described comprising a body member divided into two lower compartments and an upper compartment disposed over one of said lower'compartments and an electrical heater in each of said lower compartments, as described..

2. A device of the character described comprising a body member divided into lower compartments and an upper compart ment disposed over one of said lower compartments, said upper compartment having outer and inner Walls', the inner Walls being spaced from the outer walls, there being a space communicating lfrom one of L.said lower compartments to .the space between the' inner and outer walls of said upper compartment, and an electric heater.` -1n sald lower compartments, as described.

3. A device of the character described comprising a member having ,two comparte ments one below the other, an electrical heater in lower one of said compartments,

projecting shelves between said compartvments and spaced from the walls of said member,a top Wall spaced from the. top of the upper compartment, a V-shapedange member projecting between said top wall andthe top of said compartment, side walls and u per anges supporting said top wall,

having lower flanges resting on said shelves said side walls being spaced from the sides Copies ol' this patent may be obtained for ve cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patenti,
